Love's Rebirth Another Chance at Forever (Madeline and Andrew) novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157 

Amelia’s face darkened at this situation. 

“The jewelry y was gifts from Mrs. Miller Senior to Elena. How can she take them back?” 

Ryan replied coldly, “Mrs. Miller Senior has stated that if you insist on keeping them, we will have no choice but to involve lawyers, 

“Mrs. Garcia, give this some careful consideration. Without a gift agreement, a lawsuit will tarnish your reputation. If Mrs. Miller Senior disregards your past relationship and accuses Ms. Garcia of theft…” 

Ryan didn’t finish his sentence, but Amelia clearly understood the harsh implications. She didn’t dare say another word. 

Those pieces of jewelry were worth millions of dollars, if they were accused of theft, not only would their reputation be damaged, but the outcome could be disastrous. 

Elena’s reddened eyes were filled with tears. She never expected the Miller family to be so cruel. 

They were not o 

only taking everything from her but also humiliating her. When the gifts were given, Athena did not say anything about taking them back. 

She cried out, “Mom, Dad! Why is Maddie doing this to me?” 

First, Madelyn wanted company shares. Now, she was taking everything the Miller family had given Elena once she realized that the shares were worthless. Elena wondered how Madelyn could be so ruthless and determined to ruin her utterly. 

Amelia’s head throbbed with anger. 

She said angrily, “Give it to them. Give them everything. We don’t need their pity!” 

Although she was unwilling, she had her pride, too. She couldn’t endure being directly insulted anymore. 

Elena was unwilling to comply, while Caleb remained silent. He was too disappointed by Amellia’s true nature. Hence, he decided to keep himself out of it. 

Amelia’s instruction to return everything tore Elena apart inside. She felt a pang of anguish at the thought of parting with the priceless jewelry. 

“Mom, those were gifts from Mrs. Miller Senior,” Elena stubbornly said. 

She tried to salvage the situation. 

Amelia shot Elena a fierce glare when she saw her being weak. Elena remained silent, lowering her head. She didn’t speak anymore and didn’t go up the stairs to retrieve the items. 

Ryan exuded a cold, oppressive aura, which Amelia and Caleb felt acutely. The once gracious and considerate Elena now stood mute, adding to their sense of humiliation. 

Elena’s defiance only deepened Ryan’s disdain. He handed the list to Amelia. 

His tone was sharp and unyielding as he said, “Mrs. Garcia, please do not waste our time.” 

Amelia sensed Ryan’s assertiveness. She snatched the list and pulled Elena up abruptly. 

“Let’s go upstairs and get it!” 

“But, Mom-” 

“Shut up!” Amelia snapped, cutting off Elena’s protest.

Elena fell silent in grievance and reluctantly ascended the stairs with Amelia. 

It was a long list, indicating Athena’s previous generosity toward Elena when she liked her. 

Elena and Amelia entered the room together.
